Messara said if Racing NSW was to adopt any of the report's recommendations, it would only do so with the approval of the Gosford and Wyong race clubs.

"The path we would take would be that the clubs would have to do co-operatively what is recommended," he said. "Again, if they don't want to do it then they won't be forced."

GRC chief executive James Heddo said his club was "willing to work with Racing NSW for the betterment of the entire (racing) industry".

"But there needs to be a clear tangible benefit to racing and the community before any structural changes are initiated," Heddo added.

"We are still waiting for official feedback from Racing NSW about this issue and until that time, it is business as usual."

Gosford is preparing for its biggest ever race meeting next Thursday with three Listed races on the program - the $125,000 Gosford Gold Cup, $100,000 Takeover Target Stakes and $100,000 Belle Of The Turf Stakes.

Heddo believes this race day has the potential to join Hawkesbury and Scone as a stand-alone Saturday race meeting.

"The club is hopeful that Racing NSW will give us approval to have the Gosford Gold Cup as a stand-alone meeting on Magic Millions day next year," Heddo said.

"Next Thursday is the first time we have run our three stakes races on the same day.

"The club has shifted the Takeover Target Stakes from mid-winter and the Belle Of The Turf Stakes from spring to run them with the cup.

"We are ultimately trying to maximise the benefits of the summer period in this region.

"The permanent population of around 300,000 on the Central Coast swells significantly during the holiday period and we hope to tap into a new market."
